Creating Your First Repository

Discover how to initialize a new Git repository and start tracking files within your project directory.

The Heart of Your Project

A repository (repo) is a folder that stores your files plus the full history of every change — so you can see who changed what, revert, and collaborate cleanly.

`git init`: Start Tracking!

Turn any folder into a Git repo with git init, run from inside the project directory. It sets up everything Git needs to start tracking.
